IT SDRAM
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The 16Mb SDRAM is a high-speed CMOS, dynamic
random-access memory containing 16,777,216 bits. It is
internally configured as a dual 512K x 16 DRAM with a
synchronous interface (all signals are registered on the
positive edge of the clock signal, CLK). Each of the 512K x
16-bit banks is organized as 2,048 rows by 256 columns by
16 bits. Read and write accesses to the SDRAM are burst
oriented; accesses start at a selected location and continue
for a programmed number of locations in a programmed
sequence. Accesses begin with the registration of an
ACTIVE command, which is then followed by a READ or
WRITE command. The address bits registered coincident
with the ACTIVE command are used to select the bank and
row to be accessed (BA selects the bank, A0-A10 select the
row). The address bits registered coincident with the READ
or WRITE command are used to select the starting column
location for the burst access.
The SDRAM provides for programmable READ or
WRITE burst lengths of 1, 2, 4 or 8 locations, or the full page,
with a burst terminate option. An AUTO PRECHARGE
function may be enabled to provide a self-timed row
precharge that is initiated at the end of the burst sequence.
The 1 Meg x 16 SDRAM uses an internal pipelined
architecture to achieve high-speed operation. This archi-
tecture is compatible with the 2n rule of prefetch architec-
tures, but it also allows the column address to be changed
on every clock cycle to achieve a high-speed, fully random
access. Precharging one bank while accessing the alter-
nate bank will hide the PRECHARGE cycles and provide
seamless, high-speed, random-access operation.
The 1 Meg x 16 SDRAM is designed to operate in 3.3V,
low-power memory systems. An auto refresh mode is
provided, along with a power-saving, power-down mode.
All inputs and outputs are LVTTL-compatible.
SDRAMs offer substantial advances in DRAM operat-
ing performance, including the ability to synchronously
burst data at a high data rate with automatic column-
address generation, the ability to interleave between inter-
nal banks in order to hide precharge time, and the capability
to randomly change column addresses on each clock cycle
during a burst access.

DESCRIPTION
Input Clock: CLK is driven by the system clock. All SDRAM input signals are
sampled on the positive edge of CLK. CLK also increments the internal
burst counter and controls the output registers.
Input Clock Enable: CKE activates (HIGH) and deactivates (LOW) the CLK
signal. Deactivating the clock provides PRECHARGE POWER-DOWN
and SELF REFRESH operations (all banks idle), ACTIVE POWER-DOWN
(row ACTIVE in either bank) or CLOCK SUSPEND operation (burst/access
in progress). CKE is synchronous except after the device enters power-
down and self refresh modes, where CKE becomes asynchronous until
after exiting the same mode. The input buffers, including CLK, are
disabled during power-down and self refresh modes, providing low
standby power. CKE may be tied HIGH.
Input Chip Select: CS# enables (registered LOW) and disables (registered
HIGH) the command decoder. All commands are masked when CS# is
registered HIGH. CS# provides for external bank selection on systems
with multiple banks. CS# is considered part of the command code.
Input Command Inputs: RAS#, CAS# and WE# (along with CS#) define the
command being entered.
Input
Input/Output Mask: DQM is an input mask signal for write accesses and an
output enable signal for read accesses. Input data is masked when
DQM is sampled HIGH during a WRITE cycle. The output buffers are
placed in a High-Z state (two-clock latency) when DQM is sampled
HIGH during a READ cycle. DQML corresponds to DQ0-DQ7; DQMH
corresponds to DQ8-DQ15.
DQML and DQMH are considered same state when referenced as DQM.

BA
Input Bank Address Inputs: BA defines to which bank the ACTIVE, READ,
WRITE or PRECHARGE command is being applied. BA is also used to
program the twelfth bit of the Mode Register.
Input Address Inputs: A0-A10 are sampled during the ACTIVE command
(row-address A0-A10) and READ/WRITE command (column-address A0-
A7, with A10 defining AUTO PRECHARGE) to select one location out of
the 512K available in the respective bank. A10 is sampled during a
PRECHARGE command to determine if all banks are to be precharged
(A10 HIGH). The address inputs also provide the op-code during a
LOAD MODE REGISTER command.
Input/ Data I/Os: Data bus.
